Yeah AzzurrA I must admit I was a bit :P when I heard they actually charge spectators

ive been to the last 6 saturday sprints at QR and they sure dont charge so yeah - surprised me a bit

but like Anna said - it comes down to the fact that people want to see it

(more so than watching porches, etc etc race)

as for old tyres - thanks for the advice peoples - will come one day but not this month im afraid

(have some serious money issues :()

there is no pressure, the spectators know its practice, alot of them are just friends of the people out on track.

so i wouldnt worry.. trust me i gaurentee ill be pretty average out there... depending on what part of the track we are drifting

there are 3 different Drift events held by QR

Friday nights are a practice night. you can access the track for $80 or get on the skidpan for $50.

Saturday nights are a competition night that is aimed at getting more newbs into competition. There are no tandem battles, it is purely points based.

Sundays is the DriftState competiton which is run like a traditional drift comp with 1-16 battling it out in Group A and 17-32 battling in Group B.

What time does the Saturday night event start?

I might give this a go for the fun of it~ :P But it sounds pressurizing, i'd very much rather attend some kindda non-spectated drift practice session, given the fact that i've got no drifting experience.

nah man its fun as.

just take a racing line and power over at the start of the corner and counter steer....thats how i started...now i use the hand brake for some good entries.

fun fun

Im the same as you - want to have a go but am scared of the shame !

Well my first run on the track will be the 1st of June, im sure i will stuff up, but hey thats why it is called the drift practice, all got to start somewhere, i'd rather learn on the track then do it on the street

skidpan is on the same night, its boundary is the plastic road block's filled with water

its $50 to go on skid pan.. its soaked with diesel

i dont believe they soak it with desiel, and i think the barriers are empty....though they still cause damage.

if you pay to go on the track the skid pan is included.

and it is a mad arse night guys...heaps of fun..i have been doing it for 8 months now.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
